Q:
How Much Time Do You Have to Sue in Pennsylvania?
A:
Pennsylvania state law sets time limits for filing civil suits. The “statute of limitations” varies for different types of injuries. Any suit filed after the expiration of the statute of limitations cannot proceed. There are certain circumstances, such as those involving child victims and victims with repressed memories, where the time for filing a lawsuit can be extended. You’re invited to call me with questions regarding Pennsylvania’s statute of limitations.
